 QUALITY

At Ozone we take the quality of our products very seriously, all our 

gliders are made to the highest standards in our own manufacturing 

facility.  Every glider manufactured goes through a stringent series of 

quality control procedures and all the components used to build your 

glider are traceable.  We always welcome customer feedback and 

are committed to customer service.  We will always undertake to fix 

problems not caused by general wear and tear or inappropriate use.  

If you have a problem with your glider please contact your dealer/dis-

tributor who will be able to decide upon the most appropriate action.  

If you are unable to contact your dealer then you can contact us 

directly at [email protected].

 SUMMARY

Safety is paramount in our sport. To be safe, we must be trained, 

practised and alert to the dangers around us. To achieve this we 

must fly as regularly as we can and ensure we are practised in 

emergency flight procedures. If you are lacking in any area you will be 

exposing yourself to more danger than is necessary. 

Please think responsibly if you come to sell your Mantra R11, this 

wing is only suitable for very experienced and competent pilots. Pilots 

without the necessary experience or skills in flying high aspect ratio 

wings should not attempt or be encouraged to fly this glider. It is 

YOUR responsibilty to change the line set before selling the wing.

Please take care to look after your wing and respect the recom-

mended service intervals, this is especially important for the lines, 

any damaged lines must be replaced at the first sign of visual damage 

and the whole set must be changed after 150hrs of use.

Finally, always RESPECT the weather, it has more power than we can 

ever imagine. 

Team Ozone

curs before the recommended maintenance interval.

If the wing is abused in any way (such as tree landings) then the rec-

ommended maintenance interval is invalid and you should check the 

wing immediately.

IMPORTANT: The line set must be replaced at the recom-

mended interval…150 hrs.

IMPORTANT: Take care of your glider and make sure you 

have it checked according to the above schedule.

TOWING

The Mantra R11 may be tow-launched. It is the pilot’s responsibility 

to use suitable harness attachments and release mechanisms and to 

ensure that they are correctly trained on the equipment and system 

employed. All tow pilots should be qualified to tow, use a qualified tow 

operator with proper, certified equipment, and make sure all towing 

regulations are observed. 

When towing you must be certain that the paraglider is completely 

above your head before you start. In each case the maximum tow 

force needs to correspond to the body weight of the pilot.

 MODIFICATIONS

Your Ozone Mantra R11 was designed and trimmed to give the 

absolute optimum balance of performance, handling and safety. Any 

modification means that the glider will lose this balance and will be 

more demanding to fly. For these reasons, we strongly recommend 

that you do not modify your glider in any way.
